Household Bacteria and Mental Health

Utilizing antibacterial household products can have adverse effects on children's health, increasing the risk of autism, autoimmune issues, and allergies. Maintaining a balance of bacteria is crucial for well-being, with only a small fraction being harmful. An environment with fewer antibacterial products, opting for soap and water instead, can support better health outcomes. Keeping the household microbiome stable is essential for mental health, as disruptions can impact mood, stress, and anxiety levels.
